Happy Birthday to Me

So how did you spend your birthday?

I spent mine this way. I woke up at 4:00AM to make sandwiches for the wife and oldest son so they could scurry off to see the Pope. I learned from Ebone that sometimes a wife really does get up at the crack of dawn and make you a lunch before you go to work. I figured I would try to show my wife this and I might be able to get some lunches for work for myself. It doesn't seem to have worked. I went to work today, lunchless.

Anyway. I went back to bed and woke up at 7 something. All the kids were waking up. I got them all dressed and took them to skating lessons. One of them tried to tell me she wasnt' going to skate that day. I assured her she was. She did. I came home and the mulch I had ordered was in the driveway. Five yards of mulch. I spent the rest of the day shoveling and spreading mulch. Then we had a birthday dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings. Now that was a birthday. Below are some pics of the visit of the Pope.

Today is the Pope's birthday. I'm willing to bet someone will be making his lunch for him. It must suck to be you. I did check his schedule. Salsarita and Buffalo Wild Wings are not on it. Maybe your birthday was not that bad after all. He'll probably be eating those low cal wafers without any salsa.

It was nice of him to wear the National's colors. Go NATS!!!

Wait.....maybe he's a Cap's fan.
They could use some divine intervention right now.

I wonder if he has a slap shot???
